Consequences of driving against traffic
Driving against the flow this means endangering not only yourself, but also other road users. Since the beginning of 2024, several tragic accidents have occurred because of this. Some drivers drive against traffic out of caution, but some do it consciously.
– Police statistics do not collect statistical information on wrong-way driving. We try, through the press teams of individual provincial headquarters, to present such events as a warning on the police websites and in our social media – says Chief Commissioner Robert Opas from the Road Traffic Office of the Police Headquarters.
He adds that such situations are dealt with individually at the scene. – Some of these offenses are committed consciously, others are the result of the drivers' carelessness. Formally, this offense may mean imposing six penalty points and a fine of up to PLN 3,000 – explains the policeman.
